My company uses thousands a year and most people probably don't know it, but Parker, one of the largest o- ring manufacturers has sources in China that make a good percentage of their stock. They also have an o-ring plant in Syracuse, IN and if you specify American made, that's where it will be made.

I got mine from John Leed at Marine TEch.
That way I knew they were the correct size & material.

I replaced mine about 5 yrs ago. If your lucky enough to have an old time hardware in your neiborhood like I do they will make them up while you wait. Just let them know that it's around fuel. "Viton" is one of the better brands for O-Rings and seals in the hydraulic fluids area. But, "Buna" is also a good brand. We used to make all our own up to about 4'' in the cylinder rebuld market.
